Hi,

The marriage was by Banns and the witnesses were Ambrose Cobb and Sarah Burgess.

Hope that helps.

Hi,

Could be friends, family, neighbours or the Parish Clerk!

Could well be.  However, are you able to tell from the entry if both parties signed or signed with an X.  Also if not too much of an imposition were both parties bachelor/spinster or had they previously married.

I really do appreciate your help.....

Sorry, I was looking at a transcript;  sometimes those details are included, sometimes not.

The certificate is shown on Ancestry.
By Banns, Charles was a bachelor and Sarah was a spinster.. both signed and the witnesses were as stated but they were not witnesses to any other marriages  around that time so appear not to be church officials.
The minister was NW Jollife   but not sure of the first initial.
Old style certs so ages and parents not shown.
